However, Dawn Anna is handed an even greater challenge when she's diagnosed with a brain tumor; while surgery saves her life, she can no longer speak or walk, and must learn to do these things all over again.

    Debra Winger's awesome as a real-life title role who overcomes many of life's obstacles. I enjoyed viewing this drama film and the great unity of a family with their mother and each other. There was very joyous scenes and also very bitter and heart breaking ones. I was surprised ... read morethe family used only one ASL sign language saying - "I love you'. So sweet!
